Stating, "I am going through a serious illness process," Önder had expressed his struggle with health problems with the following words:

"I have wandered around hospital wards quite a bit. On this occasion, I have a difficult clinical picture across three or four different centers, including with my professor Abidin at Marmara University, Mr. Fahrettin Koca and Medipol, and my professor Hasan at Bilkent City Hospital. I am wrestling with these. This means that the destination is slowly coming into view. We are all mortal; if there is anyone who doesn't die, let us be the second."
