The apple tree, depicted here, is symbolic of the dogs who live with inflammatory
bowel
disease. The Celts associated the apple tree with love, perpetual
youth, and innocence, while the juice was used to infer strength and
beauty. The apple tree has also been called by Christians the "Tree
of Life." Finally, the apple tree represents choice. IBD is a general term often used to describe certain types of bowel disease in dogs. The disease is slightly different in every dog, and can be frustrating for owners who are constantly trying to control the illness. Like many other illnesses, knowing what has and has not worked for others can be beneficial. Also, knowing that others have been in your shoes and understand your feelings can be comforting. |
