I'm raising urgent emergency funds to stay safe after surviving a devastating crisis. I am working with local advocates, particularly Scarlet Road of Bremerton, and need support.
Specifics:
Cash donations for
- Retainer for counsel. Payments can be made to my attorney directly. Please contact me if you can help.
- January mortgage pmts. I'm close but short. I'm overextended from the move. No family support whatsoever.
- Legal help. We will win this case. Small amounts do help.
- Food
- Utilities
- Copays for meds
- Gas
Human power to
- Do light lifting, unpacking at my house in Port Townsend (I'm actually a really nice person and fun to hang out with. Please, my children and I can't do this on our own. I'm trying to make a space that is safe for Molly and Aiden.)
- Retrieve my belongings from Nevada with or without me. I have stuff to offer in trade. Anyone with a truck/trailer or a driver?
- Get my Ford Escape back. Help, please. Time is of the essence.
- Walk with me. Hang out and listen to music and help sort the remains. Help me get out of this cycle of doom. Please, reach out. Message me on Facebook. I have a public profile. Please.
- Help me gather up those valuables I left in Nevada. Retrieve my fifth wheel from Winnemucca.
- Make music with me.
Here is a video from the summer that shares a little bit about me. This is in my Infinity that is currently stuck in Winnemucca.
“Hope is a thing with a feather,” Emily Dickinson’s book of poems survived alongside me and my celebrity service animal, Oliver. I am just #unbreakable me, Shelly Truman, and I really need financial help, help with meals, a friend or two, help with fixing everything.

Yes, I got myself to safety after a grueling seven months of digging though the rubble of my home that was targeted by criminals...these were some of the most awful jerks I’ve ever met.
I survived arson, domestic violence, attempted murder. I’m dealing with the aftermath of the violence now, in which I am a victim of fraud and identity theft and please know this:
#ShellyTruman is a #SURVIVOR.
Despite the smiles in the pictures I need:
- Financial help
- Meals
- A friend or two
- People who can help me stay on task
- Light help around the home
- Anything, really.
It’s been a journey that will be told in time. I’m releasing the book first, then the soundtrack, Ashes Don’t Burn—People Do. It takes a village and I am grateful to be alive.
Please contribute what you can to help me. Asking for help is not my strong suit and I need your help now more than ever. My immediate needs are focused on safety (rest, sleep, lots of baths), attorney fees (it’s complicated but I know what I’m doing and I have the best law firm in Edmonds, WA on deck for one issue and others on contingency), being here for my children, and personal safety.
I want my children to have a future, and be able to stand up for their rights as I recover from this trauma.
I am so grateful to be alive and I look forward to laughing with you all again once this is behind me.
No-one deserves to live through anything like this.
