Medusa was not immortal.. or was she?

ID3477059388, quick note: if you don't know the answer to a question, don't answer. It causes unnecessary confusion.

Medusa is an often discussed case. She and her two sisters, Stheno and Euryale, were the daughters of the Sea Deities, Phorcys and Ceto, hence they should be immortal, because their parents are gods. However, Medusa cannot have been immortal, for if she was, she would have to be a god -- you can't kill a god -- and she was slayed by Perseus. Therefore, she must have been mortal.
