Frodo's light spirit was able to absorb the corruption of thre ring , but only just.

It nearly killed him, twas Sam that carried him when he began to fail, but only because Frodo was a punching bag for the dark energy of the ring.

Indeed. Frodo couldn’t have done it without Sam

Come, Mr. Frodo!' he cried. 'I can't carry it for you, but I can carry you.'

And Sam who bore the Ring but gave it up of his own accord. And..

Yes, many instances of ‘sine qua non’ heroes in LOTR, as in life.
