A doctor gave a man six months to live. The man couldn't pay his bill, so he gave him another six months.

Good ones michele, Marian and Joan.
Orion, I need a 4 letter word that means to leave quickly and right away. Ex: scram.

Thanks.
Orion, oust would have been wrong also because it is not in the words Costa Rica.
