Default I ruined my Lipo

Hi All,
Two days ago I was flying my Parkzone T-28 Trojan, Im still a new pilot, so everytime I have a good flight Im pretty excited. Well two days ago, everything at the field went picture perfect for me, five good flights, and five GREAT landings, I was on top of the world, to nail five perfect landings in a row, so much so that I forgot to unplug the battery from my plane. When I pulled the Trojan out for a pre-flight check, and to charge the battery, I noticed that I had forgot to un-plug it., well the battery felt mushy, and when I tried to charge it, my charger said low voltage and would not charge it. I've herd that sometimes they can be brought back, but since the battery is the life-blood of the plane Im thinking it's probebly better to just take the battery to Radio Shack for recycling, even if they can be brought back, how reliable are they?
