Well as I said some pages ago I am reading Frida Kahlo bio..and wow...just wow....what an amazing lady....

she had a life changing accident when very young... the bus she was travelling had a collision...
Frida’s condition was so grave doctors didn’t believe they could save her. They thought she would die on the operating table. Her spinal column was broken in three places in the lumbar region. Her collarbone was broken and her third and fourth ribs. Her right leg had eleven fractures and her right foot was dislocated and crushed. Her left shoulder was out of joint, her pelvis broken in three places. The steel handrail produced a deep abdominal wound, entering through the left hip and exiting through the genitals. She convalesced for two years though she would never fully recover.


Amazing and beautiful woman ...she lived until she was 47 .....died in 1954....... she was so cool....totally amazing!


this is a photoshop of her with her real face and real body of course ...... I will try to tell you more about her as I finish my book.

I thought this photo looked familiar. It's the cover from Patti Smith's "Horses" album.
