Well, chalk it up to experience. When a circuit board is damaged there isn't a lot can be done. Sorry.

So you don't think a jumper or some type of silver solder glue could be used to repair this ...?
any thoughts..?

It's worth a try at this point-you can strip a small piece of copper wire, say 12 gauge maybe, and try a jumper with a touch of solder at each end. How can you hurt it now?
