Blood Disorder?
I'm looking for the name of a certain Blood Disorder - I dont know if it is a disease or condition. But when someone with this disorder cuts them selves or breaks a bone, they usually bleed to death because their body isn't able to clot like normal bodies. Does anyone know what this is called?

Yes, hemophillia is the term. It is generally found in men because it is linked to the y chromosome. It's also connected to interbreeding particularly in some of the royal families in Europe. There are, however, milder bleeding disorders that can occur in male or female and cause delays in clotting that are interesting but not usually fatal.
Hemophilia, they actually lack a clotting factor ( factor 8) from their blood which prevents the whole clotting process to completely finish.
there are several, but I think you are looking for hemophilia
