Easiest plants propagate I would just propagate and start over. I’ve done it a few times.

Cut up the surviving stems. Bury then so at least one node is covered and keep the soil moist. Not damp or soaking. They will root and grow in no time

I’m with MBS and Karzdan. This is Bob Ross V. Bet you can guess how many times we have had to start from scratch!

Turtle vine makes me so happy. You can start from practically nothing and come back. Bury a node, give it good light and humidity, and it will return!
