Ouch! This doesn’t sound good!!

I think you need to find someone local who can help you. The loss of access via the TouchID button is the more serious problem! Think of it this way… You have a safe with your valuables inside and you loose the key! Other than some explosive which will damage the fragile stuff inside, they won’t survive!

Time to get to someone with deeper MacBook skills who has the tools and access to the needed parts to try to recover things. They may not be able to.

@deatzusa - Where do you live? Country and nearest large city. Maybe we can aim you to someone.
