I knew of a beautiful young girl who was sick with cancer. She was home with her parents, bedridden at Christmas time. She believed in Santa with all her heart, and she even wrote a letter to him. Unfortunately, her parents could not afford anything because the medical insurance did not cover all of her medication. Her mother cried by her bedside, trying to explain that she could not afford to buy her a gift, but she would manage to make her something special. The girl told her, "That's OK mommy, Santa will bring me something. I wrote him a letter, and he knows just what I want!" Christmas morning came, and Santa never showed. The girl's heart was broken, and she cried to her mother, "Why didn't Santa come? Did I do something bad? I must have done something to make him pass my house". The mother didn't know what to say. She just wept, " I don't know sweetie, maybe he couldn't find our house."
Does Santa only visit the fortunate? He doesn't seem to come to the ghetto, either.
