In Good Company actor Dennis Quaid's newborn twins have been admitted to a Los Angeles hospital's intensive care unit after they were accidentally given a drug overdose. Quaid and his wife Kimberly welcomed Thomas Boone Quaid and Zoe Grace Quaid into the world on November 8 - but the tots are now fighting for their lives at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Sources claim the babies were given 10,000 unit doses of anti-coagulant Heparin by mistake on Sunday morning and again that evening - newborns usually get just 10 units, according to website Tmz.com. The twins - who were carried by an unidentified surrogate mother - began to "bleed out" on Sunday night and were taken to the hospital's neo-natal intensive care unit, where their condition is now said to be stable. The babies are 53-year-old Quaid's second and third children - he already has a 17-year-old son with his ex-wife Meg Ryan.
