Omg, fungus? I missed the day lol 😂

I just called Dexter so he did some butchering work :D

Back to seriousness! So if the fungus spread, no way to save her :(
So, I cut off the big totally damaged leaf. This one from the photo too, not the whole but as your said, a few cm above the yellow part. I removed all the dried stems, so now we have just the one with flowers and a few small ones with fresh buds. And one big leaf, one with that spot and half leaf that is cut. The new, small ones are there to save hopefully the plant!

The spot in the underleaf will be monitored, but there are some smaller black dots too, all over it, so I don't have too much hope. 😐

I should have seen this happening before 🤦‍♀ but thank you so much for your time to give me the guide on what to do!! If she dies, you can call me officially a plant-killer!

Hahaha yeaaa :D

It can be stopped and she will be fine :)
There are fungicide sprays, but I never use them. I am not 100% sure if it is fungi, just looks like that one that one leaf. Observe the rest. If they go bigger cut. If not, maybe the leaf will be fine and it can be removed when new ones are big enough.
You could put a bit of cinnamon on the wound after the cut - just on the edge. Cinnamon has drying, antibacterial and antifungal properties and it can help healing faster. Just make sure it doesn't fall on the roots.

The new buds still might blast so don't get scared :) If they do that - cut the flower spikes. Let her recover.

Ok, I will have it in mind. I already saw some of those white flowers getting a bit dried today. And it is just a day she lives inside.

#WhenIWillJoinTheClubThen? :D

Cinnamon...now I have an idea. I am going to bake 😅

Oh now I get it! You did it on purpose to get to the club :P
Put her back outside ASAP!
