Dave Coulier says laughter helped him through his second battle with cancer

Dave Coulier says he’s finally in remission after battling not one, but two types of cancer in just two years… and says a positive attitude helped him get through the nightmare.

The ‘Full House’ star laid it all out on ‘GMA’ Wednesday, explaining that he had to laugh hard to cope with the ordeal… although he admits that cancer still feels like it’s lurking in the rearview mirror.

Just a quick rewind — Dave defeated stage 3 non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma in March 2025, just to be diagnosed months later with p16 squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue. And while he remained optimistic, he says the fight took a toll on him psychologically and emotionally.

These days, Dave’s message is all about early detection… and he’s been spreading the word through interviews, while also shouting out the support system that helped keep him afloat.
