Can Santa cure cancer, disease and stop war?

Quite a few people, young and old, make very special requests of the elves and me.  They will ask us to cure someone they love of a disease like cancer.  Some people will ask us if we can bring peace on Earth.

It makes us sad that people have to ask for help.  It makes us even sadder that we cannot help them.

You see, there is nothing that the elves and I would love to do more than to find a cure for all the diseases there are.

Can Santa Cure Cancer And Other Diseases?

It’s just that, well, elves are really good at making toys and other Christmas presents.  But we just aren’t very good when it comes to medicine and laboratories.  I think that’s why we like making toys.  Making toys is the one thing we can do to make people happy.  Even if we know it’s not as important as finding a cure for diseases.

We do know there are lots of people working hard to cure diseases and make people feel better. That gives us lots of hope.

If you feel sad because someone you know has a terrible disease or if you are sad for any other reason, remember that you can always call the great people on our Help Line page.

There are many other things people ask us for that we cannot bring either.  These are things like peace on Earth and for wars to stop.

I did actually stop the Great War (or as it is known now, World War I).  It was in 1914 for a very short while on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.  The soldiers of the two sides even played a friendly game of football (soccer) for a while!  Sadly the Christmas Truce did not last and the war started again.

Everyone at the North Pole really wishes there was a lot more that we could do for people.  In the end however, I think that there are some things that people have to do for themselves.

Merry Christmas!

Santa Claus

P.S.  Are you upset with the elves and me that we cannot cure diseases and stop wars?  (You can tell me here.  Or, scroll down to see what others have written!)

  1. Santa, I know that you can’t cure diseases and stop wars but I know actually we all know that you can TRY! Can’t you?

  2. your right you can’t stop wars and what not. I think they’ll have to take some time off of fighting even though they are trying to save us. I would rather die than see them having to suffer.

  3. Santa, I know it’s late. But my family stays up late some days. Sorry! 🙁
    I bet you’re dead tired from Christmas Eve! And Santa, you can do anything. If you believe you can do anything, it’s possible that you CAN do whatever.

  7. i am not mad at you for not curing diseases.The elves and you cant cure cancer, that is a pretty difficult task.iam in 5th grade and we dont really realize what cancer is so we try to make the best of it and figure out what it means.In outher contries little girls and boys are all treated diffrent and taught diffrent,and hear more stuff then they should.I think you are really awosome. idont think you should ever stop what your doing because your the best.and my best friend caleb their family doesnt have alot of money so can you maybe get him a little gift that says to caleb from noah and santa he believes so dont worry love noah

  9. Why would we be mad? Nobody can stop wars, unless the leaders choose to make up or somebody wins. It IS pretty sad to think that people are killing each other, but you gotta do what ya gotta do. I hope you have a good Christmas! Say hi to the elves, Mrs. Claus and the reindeer for me!

  10. Stop the war! Children have the right to a happy childhood, but it is true, when their fathers were with them at home rather than war.

I think its imposible for someone who spends his whole life in a freezing cold place, to cure dideases, stop wars and bring world peace (though it would be pretty amazing) all you can do for now is give them all your best and wish them a merry christmas 🙂 i hope everyone has a WONDERFULL christmas and let go of ALL there worries 🙂

  21. there is only one way for wars and diseases to stop jesus christ can stop them. Jesus Christ is the reason for the season. Merry CHRISTmas everybody.

  22. The Christmas Truce was indeed a miracle where over 110,000 soldiers on both sides decided to not fight, plain and simple. Some interesting facts: a great many of the truces lasted for several days, even weeks. One even lasted until Easter 1915! The soldiers in this section warned the soldiers opposite them whenever officers visited and ordered them to actually fight. Check out your school or public library for books on the TRUCE. If it happened once, it can happen again. Happy reading.

  23. Dear Santa my Grandad has a stroke. It’s really sad tht you can’t stop wars or cure diseases and i’m really sad that my Grandad can’t be cured . I think when they were playing football the that won won the war and be no deats or fights.
