Rumors about Bülent Ecevit's ill health were confirmed when he was taken to Başkent University Ankara Hospital on 4 May, 2002. He was taken out of the hospital by Rahşan[2] and brought to their home when his condition worsened.[2] Bülent rested at home for a while, but was taken to the hospital again on 17 May and stayed there for eleven days.
