sad update

some time ago i posted photos and videos of freshly bought dehydrated s.mint legs and that it got normal again.. it was fine! i thought that she will live with me at this point because she was eating and drinking water normally, and she was a speeder for a moment, trust me! i was so happy she recovered but yesterday ive found her dead. no idea why ehh..
there are no visible clues of cause of death and i dont know if i killed her or if there was something more wrong with her other than dehydration …

two days ago i bought and posted a photo of my new s.mint legs

so again:

She was inactive all the time and i think she was dehydrated because she had no water source when i bought her - so about 3hours without water, maybe paper she was on was BARELY sprinkled with water.

i gave her water as soon as i could, about ten minutes after paying.

first day it looked so bad i cried, i was so heartbroken, i will post the photos in comms.

antennaes were sluggish and didnt move much and there was no response to water, tapping or touching her trying to put her in the enclosure

about 8hours later it started to cleaning itself but also not for much.

but now - dwo days later she started to walk, didnt want to eat but i will try with wet food tmr.

i keep her in 18-20°C and have no idea how high the humidity is but i assume its near 70% + full water dish.

My general question is :

Is she really better or just dying and spending her last energy on trying to be alive?? And is the dehydration the only problem? ive never seen centipede in state like that, but i really want to help her and want to know if there is something more i can do other that keeping her humid, dark without stressing her out.
