“Full House” Star Dave Coulier Diagnosed with Cancer

“Full House” star Dave Coulier has been diagnosed with stage 3 Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The actor, 65, shared his experience on his podcast, “Full House Rewind.” 

“I started the podcast wearing a hat, and I said, I've always been a man of many hats, but this hat has special significance because a couple of weeks ago, I was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. … That was really a conscious decision of, I'm going to meet this head-on, and I want people to know it's my life. I'm not going to try and hide anything. I would rather talk about it and open the discussion and inspire people.”
He discussed wanting to be strong for his wife, Melissa and their son, Luc, stating, “I looked at how those words affected [Melissa] and I thought, you know what, I'm going to be strong throughout this, not just for me, but I'm going to be strong for her.”
