Candace Cameron Bure is celebrating alongside scores of Full House fans after learning that Dave Coulier is cancer-free.
Bure marked the celebratory news via Instagram on March 31, where she captioned a series of photos featuring herself and Coulier, “DAVE IS CANCER FREE!!!! Join me in celebrating this AMAZING news — let’s shower him with all the love in the world! ❤️❤️❤️.”
Coulier announced he was diagnosed with Stage 3 Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma in November 2024. The actor received the diagnosis after he sought treatment for what he believed to be an upper respiratory infection, resulting in swollen lymph nodes. He underwent multiple scans after one lymph node 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 People at the time. “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.
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 […]
According to the Mayo Clinic, non-Hodgkin lymphoma is a form of cancer that fights the body’s lymphatic system and affects “white blood cells called lymphocytes [that] grow abnormally and can form growths (tumors) throughout the body.”
Coulier and his wife Melissa Bring enlisted the help of friends to come up with “a very specific plan for how they were going to treat this.” He noted that his recovery rate “went from something low to [the] 90 percent range” after a bone marrow test came back negative.
The actor offered a candid update on his progress fighting the disease in January 2025. “The side effects have side effects,” Coulier, 65, said in the latest episode of his “Full House Rewind” podcast published on January 10. “And then you take a drug to counteract that and this and that. So it’s this constant cocktail where your body is in fight or flight mode and you’re just trying to adjust to, ‘Okay, how am I adjusting to steroids? How am I adjusting to the chemo cocktail?’”
Bure has been a constant source of support for Coulier. In the weeks that followed his diagnosis announcement, Bure said the actor would use his sense of humor to get through treatment.

“I think a life lesson is just to laugh a lot. We’re seeing that even with Dave Coulier right now — with his cancer diagnosis. He’s laughing his way through it,” Cameron Bure, 48, exclusively told Us Weekly while discussing the Great American Family’s Christmas Festival. “And we’re all there laughing along with him in support.”
