Dave Coulier’s wife, Melissa Bring, is providing an update on his health amid his cancer diagnosis.
“He has some really tough days, and as the chemo has been accumulating it gets a little tougher and more difficult,” Bring said during an interview with WXYZ published on Thursday, January 23.
Bring shared that Coulier’s humor has carried him through the harder days. “He has such a positive attitude, and you need that in order to really fight it,” she said. “Every morning, if he’s feeling up for it, we try to put on a song and do a little dance party with the dogs, because when you do feel good, you have to celebrate that too.”
While sharing that “everyone is really rallying around all of us,” Bring explained that she thinks Coulier’s strength is “just innately in him.”
Full House star Dave Coulier has shared a candid update regarding his ongoing cancer treatment. “The side effects have side effects,” Coulier, 65, said in the latest episode of his “Full House Rewind” podcast published on Friday, January 10. “And then you take a drug to counteract that and this and that.

Coulier, 65, explained that he had received his diagnosis the month before after an upper respiratory infection resulted in severe swelling of his lymph nodes. Coulier underwent PET and CT scans and a biopsy after one area grew to the size of a golf ball.
“Three days later, my doctors called me back and they said, ‘We wish we had better news for you, but you have non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma and it’s called B cell and it’s very aggressive,’” he told the outlet. “I went from, I got a little bit of a head cold to I have cancer, and it was pretty overwhelming. This has been a really fast roller coaster ride of a journey.”

Coulier shared that Bring, whom he wed in 2014, advised friends of theirs in the medical field and worked to create “a very specific plan for how they were going to treat this.” Coulier claimed that his recovery rate “went from something low to [the] 90 percent range” after a bone marrow test came back negative.
Coulier shared during an appearance on Today in November 2023 that he’s had “three surgeries” and if his treatment goes as planned, he would be in “total remission” by the time he completes chemotherapy in February.
