Uncut episode from Season 3. Johnny Lightly is thrown off a horse he's breaking at the Ponderosa and suffers a serious injury. He loses the use of his legs, though the doctor thinks the paralysis is only temporary. Johnny loses the will to live, despite the hopeful prognosis and his recovery rides on the doctor's assistant, Ann, who Johnny has grown fond of. Many Full-Length, Uncut and Restored episodes of BONANZA with Original Music are now available from CBS Home Entertainment via AMAZON and other on-line and retail sources.
I always find these kinds of episodes interesting when the Cartwright' are quite the main characters. I think it is a fun way of mixing up the episodes!

WOW!! What a way to start a episode! A have to say I don't entirely agree with the way they train those wild horses but once their trained they treat them properly. Some people like that Nathan fella are just so STUPIDLY STUBBORN! "That is if he promises to sleep with his head under the pillow so I don't have to hear that snoring.' :D When Ben says "Doing most of the work myself." he's looking at Adam and Hoss as if saying "Right you two." :)
