Character dies at lvl 8, drops to lvl 7 - do I lose my stat?

[Venator]

So last night in our AoW game my character died... He was 8th level at time of death but what quickly raised (scroll) and is now level 7. I understand that I lose out on any feat I may have took at 8th level (fighter) but I'm wondering if I also lose my stat point for gaining level 8?

I understand that I could not gain another (2nd) level 8 stat bump for attaining level 8 again, but I am not sure that I would lose this bonus due to my level loss.

Basically, do I get it and keep it for leveling to 8, never to be got again, or do I gain it upon leveling to 8, lose it upon dropping to 7, and then gain it again upon leveling to 8 a second time?

Do the rules clarify this anywhere?

"The subject of the spell loses one level (or 1 Hit Die) when it is raised, just as if it had lost a level or a Hit Die to an energy-draining creature. "

"A character who loses a level instantly loses one Hit Die. The character’s base attack bonus, base saving throw bonuses, and special class abilities are now reduced to the new, lower level. Likewise, the character loses any ability score gain, skill ranks, and any feat associated with the level (if applicable). If the exact ability score or skill ranks increased from a level now lost is unknown (or the player has forgotten), lose 1 point from the highest ability score or ranks from the highest-ranked skills."


I pick choice B: "I gain it upon leveling to 8, lose it upon dropping to 7, and then gain it again upon leveling to 8 a second time."
