This series started out about ten years ago as one page of dialogue inspired by a photo of Rob Lowe in black suit, black shirt and black tie. It was sent to mellyjane40 and Sam In Black was formed.
As the background to the story we used characters from a story Vicki was writing. Sam and Josh started their relationship while still working in the White House but separated when Josh had a one night stand with a woman. Sam left the White House and moved to California where he later married and had a son (Jamie). When Jamie was two, Sam's wife, Geena was killed in a car crash leaving Sam alone with his son. Eventually Sam moved back to DC to be with Josh and they resumed their relationship. Josh ran first for the Senate and then for President. Meanwhile Sam became a partner in a law firm.
The previous stories in the series can be found They are still in the process of being uploaded so please be patient.
In all our stories we have endeavoured to research as much as we can. In this story in particular we have researched the Jewish faith and the medical conditions but it is possible there will be some errors, please forgive us for those and we hope it doesn't spoil your enjoyment of the story.
While this story can stand alone it will make more sense if the other stories are read first.
