my aloe back in august compared to today in march. i got it from a neighbor who had too many. we got a really bad storm that dropped multiple inches of rain and drowned my aloe. i repotted it, cut off almost all of its leaves and now its doing so well, even though i was really worried

Oh that’s so fun! Aloe seem so hard to get to bounce back so that’s so impressive!

I’m super impressed bringing aloe back from the verge of death is a special skill.  
I did the same with mine it’s kinda hanging on, I had it outside when I first got it because we were still having 90 degree days and it rained like crazy while I was at work. Poor thing was drowned by the time I got home.
