A battery in good condition and well-charged should keep the car in sleep mode for a month.
Check:
1) Condition of battery. If it's not a sealed unit, check/replenish electrolyte level. Use only distilled water to top off any low cells. Most auto supply stores can check your battery - often for free.
2) That system is charging properly. Should have about 14-14.5 volts at high idle if it's trying to charge the battery.
3) For too much drain when in sleep mode. Check any non-OEM parts to make sure they either auto-off or are on a switched supply.
