I was on vacation for over a month and I left my roses in the care of someone while I was away. When I left, my roses where growing new leaves, so I was hoping to see at least a bud or two when I returned, but sadly all the leaves that grew dried out. The person I left in charge of caring for my roses to said that they watered them.
I don't know if my roses where affected by something before I left or the person didn't watered them like they said, or I just didn't take care of them right that caused all the leaves to become dry. Right now, I have cut off all the dry leaves and I don't know what else I should do. Now I am seeing some sort of liquid coming out from some of the areas of the plant. Does anyone have any advice on what I should do to revive my roses? And what is that liquid that is coming out?

I understand how you feel. I love flowers too including roses. One of my favorites.
It's the season where leaves shed and i am positive that it will grow back in its season if you care and nurture it. Your rose plant doesn't seem to have completely died down and dried out. So you don't have to worry. This is a part of its cycle.
Spray with an organic disease control product. You still have green spots so the plant isnt dead.
Awww....poor roses.
The brown looks like a canker or fungus. You can try cleaning it off with some plain Blue Dawn dish soap and see if that keeps it at bay. If it comes back, you may need a fungicide. Ask at your local hardware store or big box hardware store like Home Depot which one they recommend for the particular breed of rose you have.
My husband mowed over mine many years ago with the electric and it looked much worse than yours does now and mine came back better than ever! Roses are very hearty sorts and she should recover fully.
Take care of the brown spots. Go back to your regular water and sun routine and hopefully soon she will return to her full glory.
Post back with an update.
In many parts of the world roses have a season where they look like they die off and the leaves fall off the plants. When the next growing season comes the plant will sprout new leaves and start to grow again. Where I live we do not have a growing season such as this because we are not subject to the cold.
