Hi...I gave it my best shot but it was very damaged. After two and a half hours... I ran out of time and patience.

A try here - so much wrinkles/creases etc, so only way was to add some blur to hide it a little - Maybe with a week of solid repair and drawing in some features can improve, but time is always the challenge  :(
