wanted to give an update as to what I did so that if anyone in future that has this kind of problem can take this route.  I made an image of the hard drive and tried many different things which were suggested on this forum none of them worked for me.  I sent my hard drive the original into a company called secure data recovery they are located in Ohio I believe.  They ran a free diagnostics test on my hard drive and gave me a quote of a little under $2000.  I pre authorized the charge via a credit card.  They gave me a 5-11 business day window to complete the raw recovery.  On completion they charged my card and sent me my request file "wallet.dat" via a dropbox.  This worked great and must say they did an awesome job highly recommend this company!
