Put air in it Chris, and check it every other day. If it is losing air I would replace ASAP.

If it is still holding air decently, I would just save up and know that you will be replacing soon probably.

I think you can drive on it for a bit, you may want to throw some epoxy on it, not sure if that'd do anything but it's just an idea to stop a leak or something.

I think if you try to patch it, it will only make it worse

I agree, it would be a good idea to replace it so just run it until you're not comfortable anymore and throw another tire on it
