So my leaves have rotted off but the stem still looks ok, my mom gave it to me potted like this. Do I need to re pot it?

That pot seems so big for that little step. When you have a bigger pot it holds more water which can cause root rot. I would repot it into something smaller or make sure to not water it as often.

I would completely remove it from soil and put it into water to save the last piece. There is a very small chance of surviving in water. Check for root rot and remove. Hopefully, it can put out new roots and leaves while in water. It could take several weeks. Good luck 🍀🪴
