Name of This Western?

I read this a year ago. The basic plot was: Disfigured man who is shunned by society ends up going west. The title had the word Buffalo in it.

What I remember:

His parents were wealthy easterners.
Father shuns/ignores/or abuses him and the mother dies.
He ends up an alcoholic while/after being a wagon driver.
Something to due with a crotchety old woman waking up to see a female relative holding a sewing needle like a flower. ( I think the girl was dreaming about marriage.)
He becomes a buffalo hunter.
This is the weirdest part, group of guys get him drunk and let/make a buffalo calf "nurse" on him.

It was a hard back and over, I think, 200 pages.
