I attempted a repair; I put small bits of solder over the holes, then soldered a wire onto each of the small bits, and then put some hot glue over the whole thing to secure it. I soldered a capacitor to the wires. It did not work. I have removed all of it and now it is back to the way it was in the picture above.
No offense, Mike, but your soldering skills are making me cringe. lol. I think the board is repairable, but your skills and possibly tools and solder type need some evolution before that can happen.

If I were in this boat, I'd be using some fine wire strands (take apart a multistrand wire) to put down into those holes then solder them in there since I do see metal in each one.
