So, I didn't wash the dishes for three weeks and now they are disgusting?

I got lazy/depressed and my dishes haven't been done in three weeks. I forgot some were "soaking" so now they have moldy water and old food...sick. I want to wash them, but how do I be sure to disinfect them? I know to rinse all food and mold off with hot water, wash with a sponge to get mold off, throw away sponge, soaks "clean" dishes in hot soapy water and then wash again....anything else? How do I be sure it's all off?
I think one pan is done for. I had cooked meat spaghetti sauce in it a month ago, left it sitting for 2 weeks, it started molding...and I rinsed and "soaked" it starting 2 weeks ago but I still haven't cleaned it. I know, I know. Sick. But I had stopped caring to pick up my apartment for a while (and ate out a lot)
