I agree with Ross and Camille....a picture is worth a thousand words. It will make it much easier to diagnose your plant's issue. I'd also do as Camille recommends and leave the Keiki on the plant until it has at least 3 roots one inch or longer. Then pot it up. The other thing to keep in mind is that some Phals Keiki more than others. Many with Phal. equestris in the parentage Keiki freely and not because the plant is ailing. It's just something a perfectly health equestris does.
If you decide to cut the spike, cut it as close to the base of the plant as you can. Put the spike in a vase and it will continue blooming for many weeks.
