Xeni interviewed at The Guardian on her experience of cancer

At The Guardian, Nadja Popovich interviews Xeni on her experience of breast cancer, and how sharing it was both a life-saver and a crutch.

Today, she is over the worst of her treatment, Jardin told the Guardian, but she feels irreversibly changed – both physically and psychologically. For one thing, she's not sure she would have been quite as "sharey" if she had to do it all again, she said. But that's not to discount the role online relationships have played in her ongoing recovery. If you ask Jardin, the Internet helped save her life.
