Wow so true "no good deed goes unpunished"
You did a nice thing. But I would fear the braces would also be damaged. It could get complicated. The top probably will require cleating at minimum. What is your skill level?
Perhaps a repair person could evaluate it give you an estimate. Pretty sure it wil be too much, but indicate what needs to be done.you might tip or gift the tech for his/her time.
OTOH some wood glue and care and a good bit of luck-you might get it into playable condition
Good luck!
