Help! Broke down 350 miles from home

I'm a long way from home and am having trouble with the clutch on my '92 9000.
The pedal doesn't always come back up after depressing it. If I hook my toe under the pedal and pull it up then I can continue on. No telling how long before it fails completely.
My thought is that it's the slave cylinder, but am not sure.
This just happened, so I'm not sure what to do. Is there a good Saab mechanic in the Florence Alabama area? Probably is one in Nashville, but I'm reluctant to take it on the road, because it may fail completely en-route.
The other choice is fly home get my truck and rent a trailer to take the car to Neil in St Louis Mo, my regular mechanic.
I drove this car off the showroom floor brand new in 1992, so I don't want to give up on it.
Thanks,
Ed
