Did I make the right call? Scanned this plant today, and found it had signs of fungal infection. A white fuzzy substance was also seen forming on all stems near the roots. So I decided to toss it, worried it had started spreading to the other flower I removed all leaves that had any white spots, or heavy damage. Leaving only three of the leaves. I’ll also spray it with baking soda tomorrow just to make sure nothing still remains.

I’ll all about tossing a plant that’s going to require pest removal! Unless it’s an old plant/favorite - less stress is better!
