Default Phalaenopsis Root Rot!

Hi everyone,
I have just discovered my new Phalaenopsis I bought today from my local market has ROOT ROT! I bought it from a flourist, and she is not a good woman for selling and drowning her sick plants!
Anyway, I have cut away 85% of all the rotten hollow roots and repotted it in fresh orchid medium. This poor plant still has 5 beautiful flowers, 1 bud and 3 large green leaves.
Do you think it will make it? I have not watered it because the orchid medium quite moist.
This is not good, I have only started re-discovering orchids after a 10yr absence (I have just posted my introduction!)
My first phalaenopsis is in ICU!
Any advise would be most appreciated!
Thank you,
Buds
