Ok everyone sorry for the lack of updates, but as we have learned this week this is going to be a really long and slow process. They told us it could be 6 months to a year till we really know how well Denise is going to recover.
This past Saturday Broadway’s Aunt Brenda and Cousin Mindy and her husband Corbin drove from Waxahachie up to Paris. Mindy and Corbin stayed with me because we decided it was just too close to Liam time for me to make the trip to Dallas again. Broadway drove down with his Aunt Brenda and got to spend the day with his mom and other family members. They came back that night and then they all went back to Waxahachie. It was so awesome for them to stay with me because I know they did a lot of driving that day, but B was scared to leave me alone!
Ethan came and stayed with us later that night so we could take him to church in the morning. Since Monday was MLK day Broadway had the day off from work and Ethan from school. They decided to go back up to Dallas to see Denise again and hopefully get to talk to a doctor since those are hard to come by on the weekends! They got up there and did get to talk to a doctor. They learned again about how slow of a process this is going to be. But there was some encouraging news. Denise is now opening here eyes some. She is not responding to voices really but she is off most of her meds and they are talking about starting to take out some of her tubes. The biggest thing she needs prayer for now is that she will start responding better. They did warn us that her brain spasm could get worse at any time so we are not out of the woods yet, so continued prayers would be very appreciated!

Ok on to Liam!
We had another doctor’s appointment today and he checked me again. I was dilated to a 2, he was in a -1, position and I was 50% effaced! Being as this is my first time I guess that was all a very good sign. At the end of the appointment we decided with everything crazy going on in our lives to set a date to induce me! So unless our little man decides to make an early entrance into the world he will be here on Thursday January 27th!!!! We are so excited to know that we will be holding him within 9 days! We really wish Denise was wake for all of this, but we just pray she will wake up and get to meet here grandson. Thank you all for your prayers and support through all of this, it really makes a difference! We love you guys!!!
So excitd for you Broadway's...3! Liam will be such an amazing joy for you all. Denise is being lifted up to Jesus for his healing touch. I pray peace within all your hearts.
