I would say it should be all right. A quick loss a fluid usually warns the the driver faster, like all of a sudden it wont go!! or it starts to slip all of a sudden. Its hurts the tranny more if it was a slow leak that goes unnoticed by getting to the point that it has enough fluid to keep it engaged but not enough to dissipate the heat in the fluid. Heat is the biggest killer if it didn't get hot for a long period of time it should be alright. Hope it still is O.K for you, sucks when this stuff happens.
