terminally
In dying fashion
Terminally means in a way that leads to death or an end.
A terminally ill patient has a disease that will prove fatal.
The word extends to anything beyond recovery: a terminally damaged relationship.
Informally, it intensifies adjectives to mean extremely or hopelessly: terminally boring, terminally uncool.
