John Harald Norbelie (October 5, 1944 – September 6, 2015) was a Swedish journalist and writer. His writing mainly focused on Stockholm's local history and culture. After being diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2004, Norbeile became a vocal proponent of euthanasia.[1] In that capacity his main argument was that assisting a terminally ill patient to die might be a better choice than requiring that the patient continued to suffer.[2]
