Default Immortality Myth reference

Hi All

Years ago I read a myth - Greek if I recall correctly - about a mortal who was granted immortality but forgot to ask for eternal youth. The individual continued to age until he or she became a lump pitifully asking for death which could not be granted because of the immortality previously granted. Can anyone recall which myth?

thanks

Jon
