iPad dead + getting a new one will be difficult

General
Hello guys. Upon typing this down, this is really the worst news to share considering I have stuff planned ahead for next year.
To explain at my best ability, yesterday my iPad was doing fine, no issues of sudden blackouts or glitching while I was working on paid projects but overnight I left it to charge towards the morning. I woke up to check up on it and when I did. I couldn't turn it back on no matter how many times.
In the afternoon my mum thought the battery will need replacement but I won't have it back until after Christmas due to the timing. Afterwards when my mum was heading to Apple store, texting me on what's been going on and she told me my iPad is dead.
But my stuff is still there somehow (that is how I'm gonna get another freaking iPad pro) yet I'm still can't believe it's happening on this month of all things. I'm devastated right now.
Everything will be put on hold including Patreon stuff.

Apple are notorious for forcing you to upgrade.
It's worth trying to find an independent repair place (do check reviews) and see if you can get it repaired. Cost wise would be less than having to get a complete replacement.
