Missing Word files after crash

My PowerBook G4 has been unstable for a few days -- crashing
applications, etc. Today the computer crashed while I was working on a
Word document -- I got a gray screen ordering me to restart the
computer, and I was unable to do anything else. After restarting, I
immediately repaired the hard disk and permissions with Disk Utility,
and rebuilt the directory with Disk Warrior. Then I looked for my Word
file -- and it was gone. Not only was the file missing, but so was
another file I had previously written and saved in the same folder.
The folder in question showed up as empty.

Is there any way to recover these files? I'm prepared to admit defeat
on the file I was working on -- although I was saving regularly, as I
always do -- but how can a crash erase all traces of a file that was
saved and closed?
