why am I “brave”?

I need to write for a minute about a word I keep hearing - brave.  

People keep telling me that I am “braveto be talking and writing about my cancer diagnosis. I’m not sure why that is.  I’m not sure why dealing with a health problem the way you have to is considered brave. 
 So I thought I could write a bit about why i am not “brave”. 
    If I was brave, I would be taking better care of my diabetes.  I would be exercising instead of cancelling my gym membership after not going for five years.   I would be eating fruits and vegetables instead of candy corn. instead of crying about my life, I would be trying to make it better.
