Default Catasetum advice needed!

I did it all wrong last year with my Catasetums. I've got 2 now (don't know their names) that I took out of all medium and no water given since about mid-late October. They look beyond dead, bulbs are all shriveled up but I noticed about a month ago, a tiny growth emerging from one of them. The roots are only about 1/4" now so I'm holding out on doing anything just yet.

When I pot this up, should I remove all the back bulbs and just leave the one bulb that has the new growth? Even that bulb (with the new growth) looks pitiful.

Not ready to give up on these....yet!
