It seems to me that your case has something in common with "Technical
debt".  If you're not familiar with the subject, there is an entry in
Wikipedia for it.

Basically, if you don't update from time to time, at some point it
becomes too difficult to do so.  You think you have reached that
point.

In reality, I bet you haven't; if you set about updating in a
methodical way, you'd have it done in a couple of hours or so.  And
you would keep a backup so that, in the unlikely event that it does
all go wrong, you can revert to exactly where you are now.
