AMMAN, Jordan (CNN) -- King Hussein of Jordan, who is
critically ill with cancer in the United States, will fly
home to Amman, the Jordanian government said.
The king's bone marrow transplant has failed at the
Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, a spokesman said
Thursday, and Hussein will continue treatment in his home
country.
The king has been at the clinic since suffering a
recurrence of his lymphatic cancer.
