I would chop off the really bad roots propagate any pups because the plant might not make it 😬. Put it in a new pot only 1-2 inches larger than the root ball (with really good drainage). Put it in some new sterile soil. Let her dry out! And take care of her like normal and hopefully she’ll spring back 🤞

Thank you!

Look up how to use hydrogen peroxide to “clean” the roots! You might as well want to try repotting it in completely new, healthy soil
