"It was kind of like one of those surreal moments that you don't really know was coming, so he came in and we were playing on the floor and he is the sweetest, most gracious, nicest man ever. He got on the floor with us. He was talking to the baby. It was the sweetest thing ever," Elizabeth said.
Robbie has a long road to recovery and won't be able to come home to Roanoke until January.
