Few days while repotting my husband touched this new baby leaf, the stem almost broke but I tried saving it by tapping it. Today the leaf just came off (feels terrible). Anything that I can do to save it or I have to let her go??  
Please suggest

Yeah , it won’t grow as it doesn’t have a node , use for composting and maybe chop the bare stem back to soil level
