No matter what make an appointment to see your GYN. Have him being blood work to see where your hormones are so that you can make decisions about menopausal care.
Take a deep breath - it will all be fine.

Hopefully your GYN is a her. (Male GYNs are like auto mechanics that can't drive IMO.)
But I'd take a home test and go see her. My 65 year old (male boss) started having an affair with the nearly 50 year old second career starting post-doc in my lab when I was an undergrad. They were quite surprised to discover that they still 'had what it takes' after so many years.
But at 50, you should probably expect a little less regularity even if you're still getting periods.

some women have children after 50. I wish this didn't seem so crazy and I could just be happy

yeah skipping is a Bad thing. Im 17 and have had my period for about 3 years and recently it didn't arrive. It didnt start up again for 4 months. I had to see a doctor and they just said that i wasnt having them because i was stressed with school exams and All!!!
But not having them was fun cos it meant i could climb more often

everythings fine but we're separating for awhile. not because of anything under our control.
I'm sad, sad, but at least I can still climb....
