SURREY - A B.C. man who was shocked when a hospital transfer service delivered a confused stranger to his home, instead of his father, says he doesn't want other seniors to experience the same trauma. 

Sunny Hundal says his 84-year-old father, who was in Surrey Memorial Hospital after suffering breathing problems, was supposed to be sent back to their home in Surrey on Dec. 22.
