berkeleysgr8 is on a distinguished road
This is a prime example of an orchid that needs to be "lowered". I think I would cut the plant just below the new root that is broken (the longest of the new roots). Then seal the cut with cinnamon and leave it unpotted at least overnight to harden/dry the cut area. Regarding what media to pot it in, someone who lives closer to you can give better suggestions for what works in your area. It looks like this plant is a survivor! It's trying to hang in there!
