not well lol, no signs of life after a heavy water and some nice sun, im just gonna throw it out in like a week just in case

I cut off all that dead ness and let it start over.  
The pot looks too big and the soil doesn’t look well draining.

Fingers crossed 🤞🏽

this looks like root rot though so smaller pot after investigating. otherwise, propagate a node. good luck

#### Madi antwoordde op 2023-10-10

i very much doubt it’s root rot because it wasn’t watered for like months, i cleaned up the dead stuff and gave it a heavy water, if there’s any sign of life i’ll repot but its been a couple days and nothing so i’m doubtful
