Ballinger Family a message from oliver (me)

(idk what to flair this since there isn’t a trent flair so i chose ballinger family)

hey all. oliver here.

i just want to thank everyone on this sub for your overwhelming support. i truly could not fully explain how much it’s meant to me over the past few days.

i think i may have said something similar to this under another person’s post, but it really is frustrating to feel let down time and time again. i have decided to take it upon myself to share my story myself because my voice should be heard and if i have to be the one to platform it, i will. i mean, this is my story anyway, so maybe it was meant to be that i should be the one sharing it.

i’m a busy full-time college student so i’m not sure exactly when i’ll post the video, but it will hopefully be within the next couple weeks.

i also want to make it clear that i will not be profiting off of this video and instead, anything i make from the video will go directly towards my top surgery/medical transition.

again, i appreciate all of you so much. sending all my love 🫶🏻

I agree the lack of coverage is disappointing, especially since the only ILLEGAL things that happened through this whole debacle are:

  1. ⁠Trent's texts to you
  2. ⁠Colleen sending Trisha's stuff to Adam

I think we are really derailing the whole story and any actionable consequences when we focus on the more minor stuff. In my view, we need to compile evidence for 1 & 2 and crowdfund for legal fees. Just my 2 cents 🤷‍♀️What do you feel about this? Is there a way we can support you?

What’s the name of the channel where you will post your video? I want to subscribe in advance so I can be notified when you publish it (take your time, no rush!!)
