When my Esp8266 looses power from the batteries it becomes non responsive, after being powered again of course. This is a problem because I can never have the batteries die which is impractical. I have to re upload the code to get it to work again once the batteries die. What should I do?

There's probably something wrong with your schematics (e.g. GPIO 0, 2 or 15 at the wrong position or floating) or your code uses some magic code that ruins flash memory at a brown out.
Ideally your code should monitor battery voltage and safely turn itself off when at a dangerously low level.
But it's hard to say without seeing any schematic or code.

Assumption is the mother of all f*ckups. At least: that's what I'm assuming.
