@TheGnome we all have our off days, even your prickly pear. It's like, life happens, you got sick, and your green buddy might've felt a little neglected โ€“ totally get it. So, that left piece's still holding it down, but the right one's giving off some funky vibes, huh? First off, give 'em some love, like a plant spa day. Check the soil โ€“ not too dry, not too soggy, just that Goldilocks zone. If it's rootbound, maybe time for a new crib, slightly bigger. Get some natural light up in there, but not a direct desert sunbath โ€“ that can be too much for these cool cacti. And, you know, talk to your plant, play some chill tunes โ€“ plants dig that. Keep an eye on it, don't smother it with water, and who knows, that funky one might just get back in the groove. You got this, plant parent!
