Actually, considering she opened the gate it kinda seems like to me she was planning to do this for a long time.

I personally think Layla's constitution wasn't actually weak. She just had to make it look like she was.

She knew she'd die when she opened the gate, so she might have had to make it look like she was dying to make it look like she died of an illness.

If you think about it, if she looked to be completely healthy and then just died when she opened the gate, it would have looked more like she was assassinated.
