Dave Coulier Is In Remission From Both of His Cancers!
Full House‘s Dave Coulier is in remission with both of his cancers!
If you don’t know, the 66-year-old Uncle Joey actor was diagnosed with stage 3 Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma in November 2024. In March of this year, Dave confirmed that a biopsy showed that he was cancer-free, five months after his initial diagnosis.
Then, in December of 2025, he revealed doctors found P16 squamous carcinoma in his tongue and had to undergo radiation.
“It’s been a roller coaster ride for sure,” he said during an appearance on GMA. “I’m in remission with both cancers. And what a journey this has been.”

He said, “It turns out, if I hadn’t had that PET scan, then they wouldn’t have had this early of a detection and I’d have been in [...] a world of pain soon. So as weird as this sounds, I’m now actually thankful for the first cancer, because it helped me detect this second one.”
He described the treatment he underwent: “[Radiation] has totally different side effects. It can steal parts of your life away from you, psychologically, emotionally and certainly physically. And I wasn’t going to allow cancer to do that. I was going to laugh my way through it and keep the people that I love close to me. And that helps.”
“I feel as though I can help people,” he said. “I never wanted to be the poster boy for cancer, believe me. But now I feel like I can encourage people to get those prostate exams and mammograms. Talk to your doctors and get ahead of this….Even though I’m in remission, I feel like cancer’s always in the rear-view mirror behind me. ‘Ehh, you trying to pass me here?’ So early detection really means everything,” he added.
