Dennis Quaid talks about twins accidental overdose

Actor Dennis Quaid has spoken about the accidental overdose that was given to his twin boy and girl Thomas Boone and Zoe Grace at Ceders-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.

Speaking to US magazine People, he said:

"It's the greatest thing to hold those kids and see their faces because we had a happy ending.

"It's great to be a normal dad with the normal problems of not having enough hands for both of them.

"I do have a greater appreciation of life in general. If they hadn't made it, it really would have changed my life. But they did survive. So it changed my attitude."

Dennis and his wife Kimberley have also filed a lawsuit against the drugs company Baxter Healthcare, which produce the drug Heparin, that almost killed their twins. They are sueing them for negligent packaging - which resulted in hospital workers mistakingly giving the children adult doses of the drug instead of childrens.
