The joy of the Lord is my strength! I took my joy back from the enemy! Thank you Jesus

Hi my name is Rosina Akinola. I am a single mom with three beautiful children. I have two boys and one girl. My oldest son Sidney Maurice Jackson Jr was murdered at the age 19, on November 21, 2015. He was coming back home and got killed for not joining a gang. Sidney only had 6 months of school let to get his Associates Degree in Business.

His son Jai turned one month old on November 22, 2015 and my 37th birthday was two days after his murder November 23, 2015. My daughterโ€™s 16th birthday was December 26, 2015. They were supposed to spend it together and I didnโ€™t know until her birthday. She was devastated and had a suicide attempt on January 21, 2016 two months to the date my son died. My grandsonโ€™s other grandmother showed my daughter the video of Sidney convulsing at gas pump number 6 at the Weigelโ€™s gas station on Summit Hill Drive. I did not know about the video until my daughter told me after her suicide attempt. I was forced to quit medical school because she needed intense inpatient and out patient therapy. All I need was my externship hours to get my diploma and at first I was upset. But, know realize I have the knowledge and that piece of paper doesnโ€™t have power over me. At first I was upset at my instructor because I felt cheated.

However, since them my mom, who is my best friend died February 3, 2018. I havenโ€™t seen my grandson since January 27, 2018. I have started a non profit organization

Supernatural Woman, Rosina Akinola is the founder of Save Our Families Incorporated non-profit organization for families who have lost loved ones due to violence. We are taking back our joy, by the Blood of Jesus. My oldest son Sidney Maurice Jackson Jr. was robbed and murdered on November 21, 2015. He was 19 years old, 6 months away for getting his Associates Degree in Business Management. He was also a new father, who was gunned down one day before his son Jaiden turned one month old November 22, 2015. Sidney was taken from us two days before my 37th birthday November 23rd. Sidney made one bad choice, which, cost him his life. I didnโ€™t find out until he was dead and gone. And by that time it was too late and I didnโ€™t want to hear it. Knoxville, Tennessee is a small city that is dying slowly. This city has lost so many young men and women due to senseless violence. There are so many families hurting as a whole. No one ever realizes that the mothers arenโ€™t the only ones hurting. The Fathers, siblings, cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents and friends hurt as well. But, everyone grieves differently, because of their own personal relationship with the deceased loved one. But, most of all our youth hurt the most. They do not know how to handle grief at all. Weโ€™ve got to be more careful, when it comes to them. They will become severely depressed right in front of your eyes without you knowing it. How can I say this? Well, itโ€™s because it happened to me. I was so wrapped up in the loss of Sidney, two months to the date January 21, 2016 I almost lost my only daughter to suicide. I had to learn the hard way. Iโ€™m trying to prevent other families, from experiencing the same things my family has experienced. I want to be the voice for the mothers who are hurting too badly to SPEAK UP and SPEAK OUT. Iโ€™m trying to help families stay together and support each other. So, many families fall apart after the loss of a family member, especially a child. The Lord is my strengthโ€ฆ
