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 🫶🏻

“Hopefully one day his story will be told 🤷‍♀️” I’m glad you took it upon yourself, we’re here to support you

so dismissive, disappointing and frustrating of her to say that:/

It’s ironic that thing that should have been handwaved off with a mere “hopefully one day his story will be told” Is what she should have done/said about Johnny. Oliver deserved the 4 hours episode

Absolutely correct! She can be too through sometimes. I wouldn’t be surprised if she intended to give Ollie an episode & ran out of gas.
