Hi Glen - right forum, but best not to add your case on to someone else's.
I've split your post because, if you want advice for yourself, you need your own thread.

Was this before or after the test?
An appeal panel will want to know why she was allowed to sit the test if she was in pain.

I should have also mentioned that my partner was going through a very hard time with chemotherapy for the last 5 months and she also needed a serious operation 5 weeks before my daughter test, so her preperation was effected as she helped her mother, while she was bed bound.
Was the school not made aware of this at the time?
Is there evidence that her school work suffered?

Please can anyone advice whats a parent appeal?
There is only one sort of an appeal - namely an independent appeal (usually made by parents).
Kent has an optional extra, called the headteacher assessment, which is presumably meant to filter out some of the stronger cases before the (much more costly) independent appeals start.

Is it worth appealing?
That depends on how strong a case you can put together!

Is it worth mentioning my wife health issues? Or is it too late?
It's not too late, but it would probably carry more weight if the school was made aware at the time, or if there's evidence that the child's routine school work was affected.
However, academic evidence of high ability is what really matters.
