Letter from Frida Kahlo to Alejandro Gómez Arias, October 13, 1925 Page 4 of 7

the people from Coyoacán and instead of all the old women who also come, if you came one day. I think the day I see you Alex, I’m going to kiss you, there’s no help for it; now I see more than ever how I love you will all my soul and I won’t trade you for anyone; you see how suffering something is always worthwhile.
In addition to having been pretty mangled physically, even though as I told Salas I don’t think it’s too serious, I have suffered very much emotionally, since you know how ill my mom was, just like my dad, and dealing them this blow hurt me more than forty wounds; just imagine, my poor little mother says she cried like a madwoman for three days, and my dad, who was getting much better, got very ill.
