Water lettuce roots?

I ordered some dwarf water lettuce (more on the way). Unfortunately, the seller didn't insulate it so some of the plants were partially frozen with mushy roots that fell off. Some of the leaves are healthy but with no roots. Will these be ok? The seller says they can survive 7-10 days and then improve.

The healthy leaves are in the bowl. None of them have roots.

Yeah, give them nitrates and a light source and they will bounce back no problem. They grow like wildfire in general, I threw away pounds of the stuff over the short time I've been in this hobby.

They sometimes drop roots and regrow when added to new tanks as well.
