Thank you for letting me accidentally slap you

Trying to do this as well, it makes the conversation flow much better.

Thank you for letting me assist in the first part of getting you prosthetic legs

Sometimes you should apologize. I'm sorry for being late implies you didn't want to be late but we're because of some unavoidable circumstances, and/ or are willing to learn from your mistake and not repeat it again

Strictly speaking, “replacing” “I’m sorry” with “thank you” could likely result in this gem: “Thank you for sleeping with your sister.”
