Just try to keep it sheltered as much as possible and let nature take its course. Temperate trees are genetically programed to survive situations like this and the tree will probably survive just fine. However if you attempt to bring it indoors and treat it like a preemie baby you will undoubtedly weaken it to a point it might not survive. This is why trees have latent buds and dormant buds, to allow for natural and unusual incidents that may happen in its lifetime.
