If it's _really_ short — no more than a few paragraphs — set it off with italics. It should quickly become apparent from context who the first-person-italics character is. If it's pages and pages, make the husband's parts interstitial bits between chapters of Sam's story, and label them as **Sam** and **Dean** or whatever. Labeling the chapter by the POV character when you have multiple POVs in a novel is very common and easy to follow. Don't write four pages of italics. It's visually exhausting.
