Exploiting cancer patients and Mother's Day to make a buck - that's how AstraZeneca rolls. 

No mention, though, if pink cupcakes will be offered in the kitchen. You recall those, don't you? Just in time for this past Mother's Day, AstraZeneca hatched a scheme to serve the goodies in chemotherapy injection areas as a way to promote its cancer meds.
