No. A palimpsest is a physical medium (such as slate or some types of parchment, canvas or clay) that has been erased and used again. This was being written on using a medium (paper) that had not been first erased. The slight difference being that in this case the writing instrument only left an impression and didn’t deliver any ink to the paper.

It’s really sweet they did that for her.
