    The bottom looks rotten, I fear it may be a goner

    Get a small saw or very sharp knife. Sterilize the blade (you can wipe it with rubbing alcohol or other high-content alcohol). Cut the bottom to make a new flat base. Set it on a tray and wait for the wound to seal (as you would during cutting propagation). Replant it (bury about 1/3 of it) and water it to encourage new roots

      It may or may not make it, but that should give it the best chance of rooting
