Without seeing the car or being able to attach any sort of meter to it, the
ONLY advice anybody could give would be to find the cause of the battery
drain and repair it........wizards exempted, of course.

the way to find the "drain" is to go out at night and turn everything
off. clock if electric.
now go to the battery and take off a cable . then re-make the connection.
if you see a small spark , it means something is still draining juice.
go around to the fuses. and start taking one at a time out. Until the
"test" produces no spark, then you have found the circuit.
Look for shorts,etc.
and Good luck!
