Please help with question about bankruptcy to avoid foreclosure! Thanks!

I'm interested in anyone's advice on bankruptcy and foreclosure. From my research thus far, it seems that the lender doesn't really want my home any more than I want them to take it. I'm currently in foreclosure, with sale imminent. I've made a written offer to my lender to roll in the delinquency and continue accepting normal payments. I've read that the "loan mitigation authority" of the bank would rather re-structure my loan to roll in the delinquent payments than take possession of the property.
The question is twofold:
1)Does anyone know how to play hardball with the lender, or am I at their mercy? I don't want to file a bankruptcy because of the negative credit ramifications, but would to save my house.
2) Is bankruptcy really that horrible?
Thank you very much for your reply.
