What 'blood condition' was Dil talking about?


I can't for the life of me figure it out or if Dil was being metaphorical or what... She mutters something after repeating "My condition..." but I can't hear her. I was thinking maybe HIV or something, but who knows? Anybody have any clues?

I would guess that Dil would be a pre-op transexual and its possible it was just hormone replacement to aid the process

I got the vibe that Dil was talking about HIV...but that's just my personal opinion. She said she took prescription meds for it (AZT??)

Unless she had hemophilia or anemia, I can't think of what other "blood condition" she could have had. Especially since HIV/AIDs was still a frightening thing at the time and associated with the homosexual community. It seems the most likely to me.
