Rot!

Hi from humid FL!

Recently I lost some pink-flowered globular cacti.  Other variants had no problems, but on a particularly humid day, despite dry soil, both specimens of this particular variety started to mush.  I pulled them and put them in a  hot dry environment, but within 15 minutes the tops of the buttons had become totally infected.  I cut the infected parts off, but couldn't save any aereoles, although the roots were intact.

Do the roots have any chance of regrowing?  Not sure how this would work but I am curious.  I've read of grafting roots as a scion, but is this anything but insanity?

At least they weren't my favorites ;)
