Deeply afflicted (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stricken

(Other definitions for stricken that I've seen before include "Severely afflicted" , "Badly hurt" , "Seriously affected (by, eg, condition)" , "Risk cent, being affected as by grief" , "Deeply affected, by grief say" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
