After the first operation, daughter Anna broke hospital rules and spent the night at her father's bedside, thus beginning a 16-year vigil during which, often for months at a time, she was always within call. Freud himself was not told that examination of the removed tissues revealed cancer, although more surgery was soon necessary for "an unmistakably malignant ulcer in the hard palate which invaded ... the upper part of the lower jaw and even the cheek." First, a carotid artery was tied off, and glands beneath the upper jawbone (some of them already suspiciously enlarged) were removed...
