IMO reparing that guitar will likely be way more expensive than than the cash value of the guitar. You obviously can't estimate or assume the sentimental value, but finanically speaking, the repair would be costly (very) and I doubt it would be unoticed. Plus a restoration of that degree would take a least a few weeks to accomplish. I'm not very familiar with Yamaha guitars. I know that some can be priced in the $1,500 (or more) range, but most are pretty affordable. If it were me, I would get the model number and start searching eBay. I just checked it our and there are many similar Yamaha guitars that can be had for far less than the cost to repair this one.
