Continue as you have been. She needs to experience the loss of everything that she use to hold near and dear before she will realize it. I think she looks to you as an authority figure, i.e., daddy and is hoping that you'll smooth things over w/the girls (in her mind, she's probably looking at them as sisters and doesn't know how to communicate w/them). It's difficult at this time to actually try to figure her out and that's why I think you are doing what is right for you and the girls at this time. You and the girls do not need to have her upset your lives while she's still orbiting the moon. She's all over the place and you and your girls are in a good place. No need to upset your home life w/her wacky behavior.
Congratulations on shelving the boot! Now, don't get too eager to do things and reinjure it!
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
