She was hospitalized there from February 17 to March 6, 1961, room 719, for physical and psychological exhaustion.

DiMaggio visited her every day.

Shortly before leaving the hospital, she wrote to Dr Greenson :

"Dear Dr Greenson,

Through the window of the hospital, I see the snow has recovered everthing. Every greens are faded. I see the grass and the evergreen frail bushes, but the trees give me some hope - their sad and bare branches may announce spring and promise some hope...As I'm writing those words, four silent tears have flew on my cheeks. I don't know why. I haven't slept all night long. Sometimes I wonder why the night is used for. To me, it's only on long endless day".

On February 27, 1961, she received a support message from Marlon Brando  

Invoice from February 22 to 24, 1961
