Deleted Google accounts are not gone forever immediately. Google provides a short grace period during which you can recover your account. However, after this period expires (usually a few weeks to 2 months), the account and all associated data become irretrievably deleted. To recover an account within the grace period, use the account recovery option on Google's login page.
