Bring it into the light and water normally. If it doesn't start leafing out on the upper parts in a couple of weeks or if the upper branches are completely dry and snap when bent, you may need to trim those off. Keep it in a warm bright place now through summer and you may be rewarded with awesome purple blooms again in late spring. Congratulations!
