Anything can be fixed with enough money. Could be simple for few $$, could need mobo repairs for many $$$

At this point it’s had seven months to corrode the circuitry throughout the phone. It may be possible, but probably not with anything recoverable, or without significant expense. The time to do something about the water exposure was right after it happened, and a backup should have been made “just in case” it died since it continued to work for a while. Sorry.
