Dave Coulier says he meets with late friend Bob Saget in his dreams often
After revealing he is cancer free, Dave Coulier is opening up about his steadfast connection to his longtime friend, the late Bob Saget.
While talking with Parade in March, Coulier said despite Saget’s death in January 2022, Saget remains a part of his life.
“I miss Bob so much. I truly had a brother (in him). I met Bob when I was 18 years old,” Coulier explained, noting that he often meets Saget in his dreams.
“And by the way, yes, he comes to me in my dreams, and he always does something silly and foolish and makes me laugh,” Coulier continued.
Saget and Coulier first met while Coulier was doing standup in Detroit, according to Parade.
Saget gave Coulier his number before telling Coulier to contact him when he made it to Los Angeles.
Coulier crashed on Saget’s couch for weeks before they began working together on “Full House.”
Over the last five months, Coulier has been battling stage 3 non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. On March 31, during his conversation with Parade, Coulier announced that after six rounds of chemotherapy, which he finished in February, he is now cancer free.
Coulier said if Saget were still here, he knows the comedian would have checked on him daily.
“He would have called me every day: ‘How are you doing? What’s the prognosis, Dave? Tell me what’s going on.’ He would have driven me crazy,” he said.
“It was a lovable crazy that he had. I think about him often,” Coulier continued.
“I’ll be having a moment of clarity, and I’ll think, ‘Oh, call Bob,’ and then I realize I can’t. And then I realize I can’t call anybody and tell them this thought that I have right now because Bob is the only one who would think so outrageously to be able to respond to it.”
Coulier and Saget famously worked together for years as the stars of “Full House” and again later of Netflix’s spin-off “Fuller House.”
