<human>: I haven't had a relationship with my mother in about ten years. She is an alcoholic, and was homeless for eight years. She has caused me a lot of pain and I have spent an unbelievable amount of time crying and wondering why I deserved this sort of abandonment she has done to my sister and I. While I haven't spoken to her in four years, my dad will talk to her and visit her occasionally, just to tell her we're doing okay. She became a part of a free housing program, and got an apartment a few months ago. Before, I did not ever want a relationship with her. Now I'm slightly considering it, but I know I'm not ready yet. The last time I even saw her face, I immediately broke down, hardly able to contain myself. 

Back in March I made a birthday card for her about a month in advance so I knew she would get it before her birthday came around, and I told my dad I would like him to give it to her by her birthday. He agreed, and was happy to do it. Well, it's been almost two months since her birthday and he still hasn't given it to her. Every time it's been brought up, he tells me he just hasn't been able to do it, when I know he is in her town fairly frequently, and I feel hurt.

I feel lame since a decent amount of time has passed since her birthday, and she doesn't even know I made a card for her, which I know would make her incredibly happy. I don't know if I should confront my dad about it; he often gets defensive and agitated and frankly I don't want to deal with it, as he does this often and a lot of the time treats me like garbage (but that's a-whole-nother story). Should I just give it to her myself? I'm scared to death to face her, but maybe this would help my issues with her? Should I wait it out? Should I give up? I don't know what to do, and I'm sick of him making excuses when it is just this one favor I am asking of him...

Can you condense the text into three sentences or less?
<bot>: Father agreed to give my estranged mother a birthday card I made for her. It's been nearly two months since her birthday and he still has it. What do I do?
