What freaky thing was wrong with it? And what did you do to get back to such good health?

A few months back, I was all excited about this plant having numerous spikes and blooms. Then, out of nowhere the leaves on one cane went yellow...not a slow move, but a sudden change and it went from leaf to leaf and then took over the cane...in a matter of just days.

I took it out of it's pot, cut off the bad cane, said a little prayer and repotted it...

Voila!

It popped out a second bloom today

Do you recall the ailment of the cane??? Was is mushy?, dried?, pest infested? It does put a whole new meaning on orchid care when one is ill bringing it back around and in appreciation it blooms. Can't really tell within this but did you move it to s/h? Great job
