More From Frida Kahlo

Yeah? can you draw a skeleton riding a motorcycle with flames coming out of it? and i want a pirate hat on the skeleton. and a parrot on his shoulder. a skeleton parrot. or maybe a ninja skeleton parrot? no, that would be overkill. but it'd be cool if the biker skeleton could be shooting some ninja throwing stars. that are on fire.

Someone's killed 100,000 people. we're almost going, "well done! you killed 100,000 people? you must get up very early in the morning! i can't even get down the gym. your diary must look odd: 'get up in the morning, death, death, death, death, death, death, death - lunch - death, death, death - afternoon tea - death, death, death - quick shower ...' "

I was terrified the first time that i had a big problem in my business. i was obviously terrified when they diagnosed me with cancer in 1994. i was terrified when my son used to drive too fast. but i do believe in the fact that fear is not an option, so i always try to face it and not be afraid.

What actually happens when you die is that your brain stops working and your body rots, like rabbit did when he died and we buried him in the earth at the bottom of the garden. and all his molecules were broken down into other molecules and they went into the earth and were eaten by worms and went into the plants and if we go and dig in the same place in 10 years there will be nothing exept his skeleton left. and in 1,000 years even his skeleton will be gone. but that is all right because he is a part of the flowers and the apple tree and the hawthorn bush now.

They remain dead, the people i try to resuscitate by straining to hear what they say. but the illusion is not pointless, or not quite, even if the reader knows all this better than i do. one thing a book tries to do, beneath the disguise of words and causes and clothes and grief, is show the skeleton and the skeleton dust to come. the author too, like those of whom he speaks, is dead.

I wasn't prepared for the fact that grief is so unpredictable. it wasn't just sadness, and it wasn't linear. somehow i'd thought that the first days would be the worst and then it would get steadily better - like getting over the flu. that's not how it was.
Grief Sadness Flu
First, there is no typical grief cycle, and second, it's not something i went through. i'm still grieving.

She was no longer wrestling with the grief, but could sit down with it as a lasting companion and make it a sharer in her thoughts.
