 * Remove the coding you added to functions,.php. Or upload a fresh copy of the 
   theme via FTP.

 * So go back to Bluehost and reload the wordpress and then the theme again? Because
   I am unable to get around my specific site to do anything…

 * Not WordPress. Just the theme.

 * But I can’t get to the theme page on my site. Any attempt to change pages, or
   even go to the site is met with the error page. I seem to have no ability to 
   navigate to my site or within my site at this time.

 * Upload a new copy of the theme to your site’s wp-content/themes folder using 
   [FTP](http://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients) into your site (or whatever file
   management application your host provides).

 * I have contacted cPanel support at Bluehost and they are going to reset it to
   the back up from this morning at just past midnight. I supposed to give that 
   1 to 2 hours to occur, I am hoping that works. I appreciate your help and suggestions
   on this!
