Broken clutch helper spring

My clutch helper spring bit the dust today. Will it hurt anything to continue driving till Wayne sends me a new one?
Thanks,
Mark

Go under the floorboard and lube the bejeezus out of the pivot hole, just to minimize any damage from the extra friction load at the pin. It can oval out if you run that way long enough, even to the point where it breaks. (DON'T ask how I know )
