He learned of his cancer after an upper respiratory infection in October that resulted in rapidly swelling lymph nodes, with one area growing to the size of a golf ball. The growth led to Coulier undergoing PET and CT scans and a biopsy at the doctor’s suggestion.

“Three days later, the doctors called me again and 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 said.

“I went from, I had a little cold to having cancer, and it was pretty devastating,” Coulier told PEOPLE. “It’s been this really fast roller coaster ride.”
