A medication error changed the lives of actor Dennis Quaid and his wife, Kimberly. Twice over an eight-hour period, their newborn twins received 1,000 times the recommended concentration of the blood thinner heparin. Quaid has since become an active advocate for patient safety and integrity in healthcare. His children recovered and are now at home, thriving. But the error led the Quaids to launch a foundation devoted to improving patient safety and reducing medication errors. He speaks about this frightening experience and what good he and his wife hope will come of it.
