I thought my husband (who is a computer guy) had been backing it up but he hadnt.

The arm is broken.

I have hundreds, if not thousands of pictures of my kids on there, as well as some medium importance documents.

Some of the pix I can re-download from FB, but the rest is lost.

I am in tears

:-(

If you have the money, send it to a service like OnTrack. They can often do wonders.
