both 'go through' and'get through' mean the same thing. however, when it comes to the sentences the first sentence makes more sense than the second sentence.

Go through is usually present tense
for example: you are going through a tough time

while, get through is usually future tense.
for example: you will get through this tough time

as for your examples both are understandable but the second one sounds unnatural

Your first sentence, with "went through," is correct.

"Get through" is generally used to describe the act of dealing with a difficult situation.

"She was able to get through the illness with help from her family."

"He needs to get through one more class before he can graduate."
