Ma, your best bet is to put your iphone in a bag of rice for a couple of days. If you have an old gas oven with a pilot light, put the bag in the oven and let the pilot light heat help dry it out. Then try charging it. . . If it will charge, quickly back it up to your computer as there is no guaranty how long it will keep working. Back up photos to your Photos app first, the rest, such as emails are most likely still on the email server.
I’ve heard you can also put your iphone in a vacuum sealer bag and use a food vacuum sealer to pump out the air. This will cause the water in the phone to turn to vapor and be removed as the pressure drops. I don’t know if this will damage any other components, though.
Already done the Rice thing to no avail. Sorry I forgot to put that in My #5.
I wonder if the Medical Vacuum unit that’s hooked up to the bandage on My Foot might get anything else out of it ???
