A few days ago I got blood stains all over the bottom of this shirt, and unfortunately decided to try soaking the stains in hydrogen peroxide to remove them. This has resulted in stains and badly damaged fabric all along that area of the shirt, with rips forming all along the edges of the stained areas. I am very worried that these tears may spread all the way along the borders, making the shirt completely unwearable.

Note: in the photos, she bottom half of the shirt is soaking wet because I had hoped that rinsing it would make the damage less obvious ;-;

My main goal would be to reinforce the weakened fabric without affecting the feel of the shirt too much (I’d be happy with visible stitching or repair). I've seen iron on patches recommended for similar damage, however I'm worried that something like that over such a large area would really affect how the shirt sits and feels. I'm looking for any alternative methods to reinforce the fabric and prevent further tearing. If it looks like I'll need to use a patch, I'd love any tips regarding those as well.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated! This is one of my very favorite shirts and I would be devastated to have to let it go.

Tldr: I damaged my favorite shirt with hydrogen peroxide and am hoping to repair it without changing its feeling too badly.

I know this is slightly off theme for this subreddit, but I’m desperate for advice.
