‘Full House’ star Dave Coulier diagnosed with stage 3 cancer: ‘It doesn’t sound great’
NY Post
Dave Coulier has been diagnosed with stage 3 non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
The “Full House” star revealed his “roller coaster” health struggle on the “Today” show Wednesday.
“[I was] feeling like I got punched in the stomach because it never happens to you,” he said of being told he has cancer. “You always hear about it happening to someone else.”
Coulier, whose first symptom was a lump in his groin, noted that he was “on pins and needles for a few days” while waiting to hear whether the disease had spread “to any major organs or [his] blood or bones or anything.”
While waiting, the actor, 65, told his wife, Melissa Coulier, “I’m OK with whatever the news [is] going to be no matter how devastating. … I’ve had an incredible life. I’ve had the most amazing people in my life. This has been an extraordinary journey, and I’m OK if this is the end of the journey.”
However, Dave was told that the cancer has not moved outside of his lymphatic system.
