Ryle Winn knew that to live on the land you had to be able to deal with unforeseen problems. But he was ill prepared when the greatest crisis of his life presented itself. He was 46, fit, healthy, happily married and a proud father. He owned the cattle property he'd always dreamed of - and the smartest working dog he'd ever seen. Life was one big adventure and it seemed he'd achieved all of his ambitions. But his sense of achievement was shaken by the sudden diagnosis of a life-threatening illness.
