i’m also desperately trying to revive a peace lily, good luck 🤞

If it were me I’d cut off any crispy, dead leaves and roots and water and wait for any new growth. Time will only tell if it can bounce back.

Yes but also soak the roots in water and put it in a glass of water till you start to see improvement then put it in soil but keep the soil moist
