These are two different variables, and any reference to $wasLeft will have
only one of these declarations in scope.

You need to declare a single variable, and set its value conditionally:

<xsl:variable name="wasLeft">
  <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="some condition">0</xsl:when>
    <xsl:otherwise>1</xsl:otherwise>
  </xsl:choose>
</xsl:variable>
