Well the best you can do is try to learn, or if she can read lips, then try to talk slow or make sure she's watching.
In terms of making her more comfortable, just repeat what you always do. if there's something she enjoys like certain activities, then recreate them each day.

I don't mean to sound condescending, but learning sign language isn't that hard, there are a lot of tutorials out there, and although they're just the basics, I'm sure she'd be happy that you're giving the attempt to communicate.
If you do try, remember that it takes time to get the hang of it, So don't stress or give up.

Answer:

Here are the correct answers:

A. Mononucleosis -  Do not share lip gloss

Mononucleosis is a virus that is passed on through contact with infected saliva. It is sometimes referred to as the kissing disease. You should never share lip gloss with someone as you could also contract herpes, colds and flu and other infections from it.

B. Conjunctivitis -  Do not share towels.

Conjunctivitis is an eye infection that causes the eye to go red and sometimes omit fluid. You should not share towels with other people as towels contain germs that can be passed on from person to person.

C. Salmonella poisoning - Cook meat and poultry thoroughly.

Salmonella poisoning occurs when you ingest meat that has not been cooked properly and the bacteria that is present in the meat has not been killed off. All meat should be cooked well to make sure no food poisoning occurs.

Answer:

B. Changing passwords frequently makes you likely to forget which isn't helpful, using a personal e-mail address is unprofessional, only limiting the number of people and keeping it down to just enough people who need to see it can see it is truly helpful.
