Help My Cactus

My cactus is dying. Last Sunday it was still in good condition, but yesterday it seemed to be dying. The head of the cactus is turning a black color. The area near the roots is turning yellow. Is there any way to save my cactus?

Your cactus is a grafted cactus if you search them or google them you may find a solution. Sometimes the top part dies and your left with the bottom part it was grafted or "glued " to. Is it still humping along or is it dead by now?

I have a cactus that is dying. Normally, I dislike cacti, so I would throw it away. The problem is that my mom recently passed away, and it was her cactus, so it has a lot of sentimental meaning. How can I save this cactus before it dies?
