My rehab pink princess just put out the tiniest all white leaf. What does that mean? Is it supposed to do that?

All white leaves are possible from variegated plants, but not that helpful for photosynthesis. Any leaves at all is great for a rehab plant, but if it shows absolutely no green (not even a mint type variegation that's very light green or a super light pink) then it might be better to cut it so the plant can focus its energy on making more productive leaves. For a healthy plant, white leaves are showy and nice to keep while they last, but for now you need to prioritize recovery
