Correct this sentence, please!
Could you please correct this following sentence: "Christina is in her 50's and it makes me wonder how on earth she is still among us"

though your sentence is rather odd. Fifty is not that old! Or are you trying to say you are surprised Christina, who should be dead many years ago, is alive and has now aged to 50+?
