I would take a top cutting to propagate and start the plant over. Roots are likely rotting.

Gosh. I was afraid you were going to say that. How far down do you think we would need to cut down to propagate?

She looks overwatered. I’d cut it and propagate it sadly I don’t think it can be saved the rot is already setting in
