Yes but he dumped her because he felt he couldn't be a proper husband to her and was scared that his brain damage would cause him to physically hurt her or Simon. It wasn't because he didn't love her and he assumed that she still loved him.
I also think he believed that if he made a full recovery (got back to being the 'old' Nick) there would be a chance of reconciliation and he has been working towards making a full recovery. I'm sure he didn't think that she'd move on to someone else after only a couple of months (and this thing with Kal did start a couple of months ago) and certainly not a man who has been helping with his recovery and he considered a friend.
Now Nick probably should have communicated all that to her (that he hoped the split would be temporary) and she should have made it clear that she had fallen out of love with him and wouldn't go back - brain damage or no brain damage. But they didn't so they both feel they are in the right and the other has behaved unreasonably.
