This complaint follows from 20-35 but pertains to Wachtel's involvement.
Wachtel's response gives us a review of the entire history from 1st Pet's side, of which the part relevant to her is one paragraph. There's only one sentence describing the cat's discharge (ostensibly under her care if I'm reading Toncray's response correctly), then a paragraph discussing steroid use and recommending an abdominal ultrasound with a specialist.
The Investigative Committee again copied the first part of response from 20-36 here, stating that everyone acted appropriately. Their concern in 20-35 that nobody seemed to tumble on to aspiration pneumonia appears to have been totally forgotten about.
