This viewpoint aligns with the excerpt as it highlights Kahlo's resilience and love of life despite her struggles with pain and her decision to move away from her initial career aspirations in medicine.
Read this excerpt from Frida Kahlo by Hedda Garza.
Despite her pessimism, Kahlo's love of life prevailed. Her broken bones healed, and her spirits improved when she was able to leave her bed and walk.
