I got a brief email from a person attending the Bonsai Societies of Florida convention in Port Canaveral, FL that bonsai artist, Chase Rosade from New Hope, PA was in a serious accident. This info came because he was supposed to be a headliner at the convention.

Anyone have info on Chase?

Yes, I have a little info that Bill Valavanis forwarded to me.

Yesterday Chase was on his tractor down in the field, as he made a
turn to come up the tractor slipped, turned on its side. Chase
managed to drag himself from down under. A neighbor that was fixing a
roof heard him, came on his own tractor and was able to help him by
calling 911 and up here to the house. The pain was excruciating but he
was conscious at all times He was rushed in an ambulance to St.
Mary?s Trauma Center. A couple of hours later he was flown on a
helicopter-ambulance to Philadelphia, Hahhenmann Hospital. The
doctors explained that he has a severe pelvic fracture, opened as a
book, a acetabulum fracture, the cup-shaped socket of the hipbone into
which the head of the thighbone fits and some bleeding near the
kidneys. He is in the intensive care unit, waiting to have surgery
this morning.
Our prayers are with him and Soli.

Tom,

Chase was injured when his tractor rolled over on him. The info that I received was that he had a fractured pelvis, and other injuries, and was to undergo surgery this am. He was in intensive care. I'll relay more if I hear.

As an anesthesiologist at a Level 1 trauma center, I can say those (open
book pelvic fracture, acetabular fracture and internal bleeding) are very
serious injuries, potentially life threatening. Will keep Chase and Soli in my
thoughts and prayers...

Regardless of our faiths, let us all pray for the rapid return of Chase to health.

Cordially,

I just spoke with Soli...Chase is now in surgery, which is expected to last
8-10 hours. I assured her all our best thoughts were with them.
